Abstract excerpt
Tubulins undergo several kinds of posttranslational modifications (PTMs) including glutamylation and glycylation. The contribution of these PTMs to the motilities of cilia and flagella is still unclear. Here, we investigated the role of tubulin glycylation by examining a novel Chlamydomonas mutant lacking TTLL3, an enzyme responsible for initiating glycylation. Immunostaining of cells and flagella revealed that...
